Can any of you hardcore people tell me if I can open the side of the Prometia Mach2 and check all the wires (no static electricity or what so ever there?)
Where to look ?
Haven trouble with the temp (other tread here)

well tell me what you would like to know?
the thermistor is inside the cooling head.so you cannt get to it.the signal wire is the gray wire coming out of the hose at the compressor and attaches to the control board right next to the lcd port connection

Reattached every little part and now it is working.....great.
BOWMAN, so if this happens once again. Can I then for instance bye a new probe and plug it the the wire coming out of the host, and plant the temp. reader on the side of the Prometia head?

well yes and no.
for one they are using another thermistor i havent sat down and figured out yet.it is not close to the mach I that i can see.
but if you can find a replacement sensor it will work fine.i place my probe right at the top of the copper head,and it reads fine right there.
